PI; Bi.l SHED Being New3 From all Points of tho Compass in A Condensed Form. A Short Synopsis of Our General Produce Market. A Jury Drawn-The IJontecito Seduction Suit. The Uncertainty of Insurance and Other Doubtful Things, St Ores Died in Santa Maria Nov. 13, Aged 75 Years.

The Successful Trip of Dir Her General Da Young to o. That Question of Time is Speedily Answered. Every THIS ANDTSAT. Wb do not Claim More Than an Earthly Paradise. San Francisco, Nov.

18 Di rector General Do Young returned fiom Chicago to-day where he has been for few weeks contracting for exhibits for (he Mid-Winter Fair. lie expresses himself as highly elated with the success of his mission. In regard to the foreign exhibits, We are going to have all we can furnish space for, said Mr. De Young. Tho commissioner for the English exhibits has contracted for C009 square feet In the manuf ictur- Wheat Tho market has ruled barely steady for sample parcels and weak for futures.

While quotations are given vjut at $1 01 to $1 03J for No. 1 to choice, exporters pay in the country tor Port Costa delivery from 2J to 3J cents higher. It is quite generally claimed that belter prices will rule after I he turn of the year. December wheat sold down to $1 OS and Hay to $1 2 1. Barley The market has held to st -ady prices.

The feeding demand has been quite heavy. The shipping demand 1ms been only fair. Oats Low prices cause receipts to fall off, which lias had tho ten deney to steady the market. The demand is fair. Corn The market advanced sBghtly but with fteer receipts and an oflish demand, prices shaded slightly.

Beans The market has rul-d fairly linn. The mand for shipping is siid to be fair considering the enormous quantities that hive been sent cast. Some of tho holders are disposed to moro firmness. era budding, the commission There has been little to report with reference to the railroad progress for the last week, the promised additions to the working force gradually materializing, ami the work all along the line proceeding with the wished for rapidity. In the tunnels the probabilities are that the whole business will be done before our citizens get used to the idea that something is really going on.

Last week the amount completed in tunnel number one was 72 feet, beating the record so far and leaving less than 600 feet to be done. In tunnel number two there remains only about three hundred feet to do, and work is also going on in tunnels six and seven. The other tunnels it will be remembered are quite short ones. In fact the chances are that all the work in the eeveti tunnels will be done not later than the first of February, and some of the more sanguine on the work assert that the tunnels will all be finished by lie 20ih of January. It has repeatedly been given out by those who are supposed to be thoroughly well posted that after the tunnels are completed, it will not take sixty days to build the track into town.

At all events it is evident enough that if the work goes on at the present rate and here seems little likelihood of any new delay-, tbe road will be finished to thi: point even before the time set by tiie managers of the company. But it cannot come too quickly for us. S. L. O.

Tribune! S. Press The Superior opsned another bu-y week yesterday morning. Hon. W. B.

Cope presiding. A jury of twenty-five was drawn for the 11th day of December for the trial of criminal cases commencing on that day. The court signed judgement in favor of the plaintiff in accordance with the verdict of the jury tue case of J. II, Groodona vs. N.

The lime fo- the rneet-ing of the creditors foi the election of an assignee w.is continued until the 16 in the matter of Miguel M. JSauza an insolvent debtor. The ease of the People ve. Juan Cota was continueJ. The witnesses weie sworn and examined on behalf of Iho People: Katv Romero, Anna G.

Pollareno, Mariano Romero, Ldirifl Pollereno, W. II. Akers, A. lomero and Rebecca Romero. The People rested their case at noon.

The deiense examined several witnesses in the afu moon. The case will be on trial again to-day and perhaps part of IIay The market is strong at tho rains Communicated. Thar in every trade, profession or lino of business there are methods of evasion and trickery by which unscrupulous part ies take advantage of the credulous and unwary public, is a fact so well known as to require no argument, An illustration of this Is furnished by the case of Mr. J. D.

Snyder, of Los Alamos. An old resident of Santa Barbara county, be was widely known and almost universally esteemed as a gentleman of high character and unquestioned integrity. For many years ho has carried moderate Insurance on his property aod had paid nearly $10,000 In premiums to the Insurance men. Finally his property burned, and on the unsupported testimony of a drunken vagrant and a notoriously vindictive enemy, tho insurance companies not only refused payment of his policies, hut preferred a charge against him of setting fire to his own property, which was valued at more than twice the amouut of Slid policies. A prolonged and searching examination resulted in establishing the falsity of the charge and tho vileness and unblushing perjury of those making the accusation, and created a strong suspicion hat tha chief witness of Iho firo insurance companies knew far more about the origin of the fire than he was willing to confess.

Mr. Snyder was exonerated and the falsity of the charge against him made clear to every mind, and yet the insurance companies refuse to pay the amount due him and compel him to have recourse to legal measures to enforce payment. The following named companies have been sued for the recovt ry of Iho amount of the policies written by thorn on Mr. Snyders property: Palatine, American Central, German American, North weslern National, Imperial, Patriotic and in. Those who intend insuring their property against loss by fire will do well to note the above list of companies and learn from Snyders fate that a policy of Insurance in said companies does not in variably insure that is, it is as liable to insure trouble and loss of property and rep utation as to insure payment damages caused by fire.

Justice. er has secured 200 square feet, the Iri-h exhibitors 100 square feet, Oriental exhibitor-! have contracted for 1000 square feet, and twice that amount, is needed for the Austrian exhibit of Bohemian glassware, pottery, etc. The Russian exhibit will probably be one of the handsomest exbihits of all as it will require 12,000 square foot. Tho Italian exhibit will occupy eighty feet and will include a magnificent display of marble stainary, etc. The Japanese will also have a lino exhibit in the manufacturers having secured 3000 fee1, nn 1 the Germans will also do themselves credit.

The entire Polish art exhibit of 100 French pictures and large number from GGrraau and other art departments, have been secured for the ait building. The work leas by no means boon confined to thQ foreign exhibitors The Ar.i-iu-an department will in-el'ido exhibits of lending concerns e.f the cun try.

Soon after leaving the office on hia mission ho was attacked by footpads, sandbagged aud robbed of the entire amount. Chicago, Nov. 15. Probably without exception the most etching feature ol the entire Slid way was the Cairo street, and that aggregation of camels, donkeys, donkey boys, Arabs and dark eyed, biown skinned houris from the banks of tha Nile, not to mention the jugglers, mind readers, and venders of Egyptian candy who attracted attention to their wares by singing Ta Ra Ra Boom De Aye, gathered its traps together and loft for San Francisco to-night.

Perkins, a brother of Senator Perkins. died last night. During a recent trip east I was more than ever impressed with the fact that tv much cannot be said in favor of our southern coast country and from time to timo will endeavor to illustrate this fact by comparisons and otherwise. In this article shall merely hint at some of the differences between this and the east and will Bay something about transportation, as that is of much impoitance to those why are directly interested. The cry of hard times is heard everywhete, but like other contagion, by the time it has reached the coast it has spent its forces and we have it in its mildest form.

Practically, we know nothing about hard times. We are throwing away and wasting morn on our farms and in our homes than it costs tho average eastern man to live, and this is the only solution of many western propositions which the eait cannot underatand. They wonder why we are not all in the poultry business, since the price of eggs and fowls rules so high, but this is only one of the little things that go to waste with us and is one of the avenues through which tho newcomer manages to outstrip our old settlers in the financial struggle. A prevalent impression east, concerning our business affairs needs correction: They seem to regard Cali fornia as a pleasant resort fur the rich. A good place to lie down and be comfortable.

The average easterner has good beUh, lets of ambition and is in business for profit. Ha feels the need mors wealth and is not ready to wap his chances for a pleasant place iio dowa and rest; he does not feel ths need of it. This impression was rested partly by cheap boom litcr-turs scattered broadcast and partly by swell tourists, who inherited more money than brains and who knew California only by her famous resorts. We can prove by every active, business man who have breathed the ozone of the Pacific, that there is more energy here to the square iuch than auy where ele iu the Union and we ean add to this, increased opportunities, more wealth, and actual enjoyment something rarely heard of in eastern business. The eastern man has up his mind that he must and can withstand all obstacles, such as extremes of baal and cold, wind and storm in order to gain a livelihood, but he does appreciate a bit of line weather when he can get it.

A few hours of pleasant sunshine will set him singing like a canary bird for a whole wtHfW. and when he conr.es out here and gets settled into business he sings and works and enjoys himself every I day in the year. I The east is studying the west as it never did before anil the next few fall figures, have caused holders to weaken. The supply is Slid to be light. Wool The east reports a slightly betier tone.

Willi ns low prices continue. Assortments ar poor. Potatoes The market has ruled in buyers favor owing to receipts being in excess of trade wants. The rop cast is again short will create a dc.umd later. Butter The market r.nfi:)u's to weaken.

On Monday last Mr. St Ores was in Ins accustomed place, at his stand on I lie corner, feeling aa well as usual until towards evening, when lie was taken with a violent attack of lagrippe and had to be carried to his home on Church street whore he died at 10:29 p. ra. that evening. Ho suffered intense pain for a time but was quite comfortable during his last hours and death came apparently without any warning.

He and his son and Mr. John Sules-bury eame from New York to Frisco in 1S62. They speut some time in the employ of the government at the Puget Sound custom house, after which they built and ran a sailboat on the Columbia river. From there they drifted into the mines. Mr.

St Ores family joined him at Frisco in 1865 and they weut onto a farm in Mendocino county. He came to this valley in 1873, organized a company aod built the Peoples Landing, at Point Sal. While working on this wharf he met with an accideut which caued him to have his right leg amputated below the knee. The operation was not properly performed and he afterward suffered a re-amputation above the knee. Having been the victim of misplaced confidence in the Point Sal managers Mr.

St Ores obtained a franchise and built the Chute landing which is still standing and is used by small freight boats. lie was a constant sufferer from iniured nerves which seemed to have been improperly protected and last June be stood a third amputation of the same limb. This last wound never healed properly and may have had something to do with his demise, although previous to bis la grippe attack he was feeliug as well as usual. liis grave was dug by tho sid6 ol that of his wife, in Guadalupe cemetery and on Wednesday last tho funeral services and interment took place uuder Eastern Star and Masonic auspices; ho being a member of both orders and In good standing. The Star ladies were present in full force and paid loving tribute to the honored dead by literally smothering the grave with beautiful floral designs.

Since the oiganizatioa of Mi.pah Chapter No. 109. O. E. S.

in Santa Maria his Heart seemed wedded to the order and lie had tnc full confidence, respect and sympathy of every member. His last request of the Stars was that they should see that he was buried by I lie side of the one that lie loved best. He left all his earthly possessions and the care of his grave in the hands of his old friend and partner. Mr. Saleshury, who will probabi continue the little stand on the corner.

He has three children still living. Two sons in Mendocino county and a daughter, Mrs. Hart in Milwaukee, Wis. Nearly every one in this and adjoining counties knows Mr. St Ores and they have long since placed him on record as a public benefactor.

He was a man of deep coovictions and earnest determination and much of the progress and development attained in this section was brought about through his combined energy and ingenuity. His outward appearance did not always betray the real man within, out a short acquaintance would reveal a heart full of melting sympathy for the laboring man and he lived and died a true friend to tho poor and oppressed of all nations. of bread You can get 23 loaves to morrow.
